If you have a sump pump and it starts up, it will burn out very
quickly, they are water cooled. Hot water is not going to cool it.

Not really. I run sump pumps on a regular basis up to a constant 16 hours a
day in 125 degree water and they last for years. I have another self
priming pump that will get rid of 190 degree water in a flash and has been
doing so for about 15 years, but that is only about 20 to 30 gallons at a
time.

Zoeller spec is 130 degrees and most residential water heaters are right in
that range.
